Wow!! Thank you! So many great ideas! Some weeks ago, I reached out to one of my favorite pattern design and asked if she was interested in having her patterns translated into Portuguese (I am a professional translator), and she accepted. So, I exchanged my services for her patterns! I was happy and she was happy!
That is wonderful!! What a wonderful way to combine your expertise with your crafting passion! ❤️❤️❤️
Wonderful video. Thank u sooo much. Pl.let me know ur country?
When I worked at a law firm, we used to have a craft class on our lunch hour. One of the girls had an Etsy shop and suggested I should open one. I did and it was a little hectic when I worked, but when I retired it got very busy except for the summer months. I barter what I make with professional photographers to get professional photos. That really makes a difference.
That's such a great tip! Thank you for sharing!! 🧶🧶🧶
Textiles are the biggest cottage industry in the world. In the past, guilds worked well for producing saleable textiles, teaching many techniques, and for innovation. Guilds are great for arranging sales in the local community. It's also nice to have friends to knit and crochet with. Knitting, crochet, and weaving have been an economic powerhouse historically. In other countries, it's still very important.
Thanks so much for sharing! 🧶🧶🧶
BellaCoco helped me learn to crochet. I literally learned from one book and two of her videos! And I love amigurumi. It’s crazy how many people ask me to make amigurumi for them! I am about to send out my first out-of-state order and I’m so excited!
Bella Coco is amazing!!! She's such a wonderful teacher!! And congratulations to you!!! 👏👏👏 That is wonderful! ❤️❤️❤️
I like her too!! She doesn't go too fast & I learned a lot from her.🙂
How generous and supportive you and your interviewees are!!!
Thank you!
You are so welcome! I was blown away by the wonderful advice that each one of the makers shared! 🧶🧶🧶
wow wee, you're amazing! thanks for sharing so much wealth of information. currently I host a small knitting and crocheting circle at Bailey'scafe in Brooklyn. During this past summer I had the opportunity to work and get paid for a weekly Wednesday fiberarts workshop. I'm considering the different options for expanding what I do and I truly appreciate the information you've shared.
You're so welcome! There are so many ways you can make money from crocheting and knitting! That's wonderful that you've already started! Once you realize that you can be paid to do what you love a whole new world will open up! Good luck!!! 🧶🧶🧶
Wow, thank you so much for all your blogs. Great tips for someone who is toying with the idea to start a business. You are an inspiration!
Thank you so much!! Good luck to you!!! 🙌🙌🙌
I am have watched some of your videos and l am learning a lot from you. I have always wanted to start making money doing what I love but was afraid to. My family has always told me to sell my stuff, but I would just make things and give it away. Now I am on a fixed income and can't afford to do this now. But watching your videos l am learning a lot from you and I am going to look at all your go to videos. Thank you.
You'd be surprised how many different ways there are to make money in the crochet world! I wish you all the best! 🧶🧶🧶
Another fantastic video! I found myself nodding my head to all of the great advice and resources. Thank you!
I'm so very glad you enjoyed it! 💖
This is all really helpful information, Elise. Thank you for being such an inspirational facilitator!! I greatly appreciate that aspect of your personality!
This has given me a lot to think about.
There really are more opportunities out there than any of us realize! So glad you enjoyed it, Violet! 🧶🧶🧶
Thank you so much. Many people would not share all these ideas and ways to be successful. I appreciate you😊
You are so welcome! 🧶
Thank you so much for your motivation. I almost gave up on my crochet CZcams channel for some reasons but ur video has motivated me not to give up
That's great!! Keep going!!! 🙌🙌🙌
Best videos on crocheting I have watched
Thank you! ❤️
Wow! You are always a wealth of information. I love the way your mind works. Thank you for all the info. I appreciate the hard work that went into this video. You did all the hard work for us and laid everything out very simple and concise. You are amazing 🤩
Awww! Thank you! I'm so glad that you found it helpful!! 🧶❤️🧶❤️
WOW! What a tremendous video! Love that you are taking time to help so many people! Extremely Impressive!

You're so welcome! 🧶🧶🧶
Hello Elise!!! New crochet youtuber here! I am so happy I found your channel! Great video! Thank you for being an inspiration for us!
You're so welcome! I'm so glad you like the channel! 🧶
Thank you for sharing with others, I have not yet tried to sell my things, but am in the process of researching and finding out what I need to know, so your videos are very helpful. If not for fellow crafters being so generous with their knowledge, I don’t think I would even consider it.
Best of luck! ❤️❤️❤️
Elise, thank you for such useful information!! This is SO timely for me as I put things together to set up a shop. Since I will be only one of countless choices, I have been on a learning expedition about how to build clientele. I know #1 is HAVE A DESIRABLE PRODUCT, then #2, 3, 4 ... is PROMOTE, PROMOTE, PROMOTE. So, since I'd rather not reinvent the wheel when others are navigating the path, I am extremely appreciative of those who share what they've learned.
You're so welcome!!! Good luck to you!!!! Sounds like you're doing all the right things!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I love your videos and just how personable and relatable you are. Thank you for sharing with us! Because of you, I have learned so much!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! ❤️❤️❤️
I learnt to crochet thanks to Bella Cocos videos! And creators like you inspired me to start amigurumi, so thank you!
That's awesome! Bella Coco is so amazing!! 💖
Wow, thank you so much for all the wonderful ideas! I also have a crochet CZcams channel + blog and this video was so helpful. Opened up my eyes to other possibilities! Definitely needed this encouragement. Thank you Elise!
I'm so glad you found the video helpful! I am so thankful for the advice from the "experts" about how to make money doing what we love! 🧶🧶🧶
You are the best. I love Bella coco
Thank you so much!! She is so amazing!! 🧶🧶🧶
Hi Elise, WOW thank you SO much for sharing!! Just subscribed to your channel, SO many great ideas and your Amigurumi are ADORABLE!!❤️❤️❤️🥰🙏🏼
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you're enjoying the channel! 🧶🧶🧶
Iam very excited about this!
Im so glad! 💗
Thank you so much for all of this information!
You're so welcome! 🧶🧶🧶
Thank you so much for this wonderful resource! I am an elementary art teacher who is looking into making stitching into a business now that I realize my pension has been “clawed back” into practically nothing. I cannot do the physical labor of the full class load. However, I love to create & teach a love of creativity.
I do not know if this is the answer, but it is a bit of hope.
I'm so glad you found the information useful! 🧶🧶🧶
This video is so well done! It is a fountain of beautiful inspiring information. I have learned thru my career it is best to simply consider everyone a potential partner. So many starting out miss this important key to business success. To your continued success…
Thanks so much! ❤️
Oh i loved this one! Thank you for reaching out to other makers and giving us more insight and ideas! ♥️🧶
You're so very welcome!! 💖💖💖
Thank you for this…the knotty boss is just what I was looking for :)
That's fantastic! Anna is amazing!!! ❤️
Wow this is great info! I can’t wait for Sara janes course I’ll definitely keep my eye out for it!
Yes! I know it's going to be amazing!! 🧶🧶🧶
Thanks so much for this video 🙏🤗 i came back to my crochet business after nearly 5 years and this time full time! 🥰 I’m designing and selling crochet rugs, blankets and scarves. As well as patterns and printable posters of course. And just started this new CZcams channel of mine. Still working on distinguishing my style of making, filming, talking, etc. And you lr videos help a lot. Thanks again! ❤️😍🙏
That's amazing!! Sounds like you are doing fantastic!! Good luck with your channel!! You will have a lot to offer the crafting community!! 👏👏👏

I raise alpacas, spin their fiber into yarn and either sell the yarn or make things. I enjoy it
Oh wow!! Sounds amazing!! ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you sooooo much for all this information!!

Another helpful episode , thank you lovely lady. I’ve just opened an Etsy shop, Stitching in Daydreams, with just a few items to start with, so this was so interesting. Take care and keep sharing your joy 🧶🌻🧵💕
That's so wonderful!!! I'm so excited for you!! ❤️🧶❤️🧶
@@EliseRoseCrochet 🌻💕
Excellent video and highly informative. I appreciate you so much for sharing!
You're so welcome! 🧶🧶🧶
I am recently planning a crochet biz but I always have the thought where nobody will buy my products, thankfully I found this video
I'm so glad you found the video helpful! 💓
What a timely video!
I’m currently working on starting my business and taking classes in business at my local community college.
When the video was finished I saved it for references for a later time and bookmark.
Thank you so much for all the diverse ideas!
That's wonderful! There are so many opportunities to make crocheting/knitting a business. 🧶❤️🧶❤️
Taking classes at local college? What a wonderful idea. I should do that. A few Accounting classes would be another thing for me to put in my to-do list. Thank you for the suggestion.
Great food for thought ... thank you!
You're so welcome! ❤️❤️❤️
Great tips! Thanks for sharing! ❤️
You are so welcome! ❤
Really helpful and so fun to watch.
I'm so glad! ❤
This was very helpful. I just got back into crocheting. As I needlefelt as well
I'm so glad it was helpful! And needle felting is amazing!! 🐰
Thank you for these tips.
You're very welcome! 💗💗💗
I had a business years ago with a dear friend, and we made crochet Victorian gowns, petticoats, and knickers for Barbie dolls. I remember when I sold my very first for $100k, I was so excited, but unfortunately she moved away and passed away recently. I'm now 71, and I still think about selling toys, especially these Amigurumi. I just started, but I'm enjoying them, and Elise I followed you making the catster. I just finished my first, but of course I am just practicing, but it gives me ideas.
Thank you so much for sharing! Wow, Victorian gowns for Barbie dolls!!! ❤️
Thank you! Very useful information😃
You're so welcome! 🧶🧶🧶
Thank you for all of your suggestions and help -- and agreed. Mindset which is not as easy as it seems. One day I feel I'm there and other days I'm wondering just what on earth am I doing... But I keep doing it! 🤣
Me too!!! I also really struggle with direction! I want to do all the things, which really isn't possible! 😂 But I really loved Sarah-Jayne's advice! 🧶
@@EliseRoseCrochet I agree. Things like hats for adults, slipper-socks, and then anything Amigurumi seems to be my area. Blankets, shawls, scarves, and anything else along those lines seems like it will never be -- and it just may turn out that way. Wishing the best for everyone and their decisions and wherever their journey takes them!
thank you for being you
Thank you! ❤️
WOW! Thank you from germany
Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️
The answer is YES!!!
👏👏👏
Great video Elise, very useful....I am just trying to discover my own niche.....x
Thank you so very much!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Knitting has been my side hustle for years. I knit as a hobby all year long to sell my product at markets for what I consider my peak selling months, October to December for holiday gift giving. My issue was having the TIME since I worked full time too. It's important to find your niche in the market place. There is money to be made.
Thank you so much for sharing!!! You are so right, there is money to be made and finding what works be for you is such an important step! 🧶🧶🧶
Thank you Elise for the GREAT info! I have been wondering about this very subject for a few years now and my kids have told me too, “Ma you need to start selling your stuff, you could really make money.” Love your channel and thanks once again. 😊
Glad it was helpful! 💓
A very interesting & helpful video thank you !
Thank you so much! I'm so glad it was helpful! 💓
Thank you for your information. I am trying to set up a small business to bring in extra cash when I retire. (I am using my husband as my test subject for my patterns. No complaints, but lots of suggestions for improvements.)
Love it! My husband is my best advisor when it comes to my business as well! 💖
Thank you 💗 that helped me a lot 😊
You're so welcome! 💖
So proud of you 😘❤
Thank you so very much, Dawn!! 💖
Great video! Thank you!
You're so welcome! Thank you! ❤️
I crochet some tops and baby clothes, hat ,shoes for baby shower still a beginner and still struggling some times but when I saw your tutorial for amigurumi I said to myself I wanna try it . Wanna give a as gift to my co worker that her daughter in law will gonna have the first baby. Now im almost done with the doll I wanna keep it and make one for her. Lol🤣
Haha! I totally understand! 💓
Thank you for this information
You're so welcome!! 🧶🧶🧶
Thank You for all great ideas. Right now just focusing on my Dad . He is close to passing and I want to spend as much time as possible.
I'm so very sorry for you and your family. He is way more important than crochet. Hugs to you . ❤
@@EliseRoseCrochet Thank you you are so sweet.
Thank you for sharing! I love to crochet, knit and sew. I would love to have a small business doing this. Maybe one day teach young girls how to do this.
It really is a dream come true for me. Spending my days doing what I love is amazing. I hope you are able to make your passion your business as well!! 🧶❤️🧵
Why not teach anyone who wants to learn, whether male or female?
I’ve made some of the Harry
Potter stuff from that book All came out great, especially Dobby.
Thank you so much for sharing that!! The Dobby pattern is amazing!!! 🧶🧶🧶
I’m just considering the idea of selling some crochet items. Crochet items Ive made include dishcloths, towel holders, scrubbies, potholders& hot pads, baby blankets, shawls, scarves, hats, scented pumpkins, teddy bears, etc. I’m considering taking items to a craft show to see if anything sells???
That's wonderful!! There are some good resources out there for prepping for a craft fair! Good luck! 🧶🧶🧶
Thanks for this information. For a while I wrote craft articles which was enjoyable and gave me an income. The online company that I wrote for was sold and many of us lost this income. So, two things here, you may be able to share your knowledge by writing articles and you must pay strict attention to what is going on. That nice income can disappear, so be ready for a new path. Do not trust your income on one thing.
Thanks so much for sharing your experience. Diversification is definitely a good thing these days! 💖
I just signed up to become a crochet instructor then I will do the knitting one
That's amazing!!! 🧶🧶🧶
Thank you for the information.
You're very welcome! 🧶🧶🧶
Thank you!!!!
You're welcome! ❤️
How do you read minds Elise? 😂 I honestly was just thinking about this topic !! Thank you ! ❤
Haha!! I'm so glad this video is well timed!! ❤️🧶❤️🧶
I have the Harry Potter book from the library. I love the Phoenix one
The Phoenix is incredible!!! ❤
Thank you!
You're welcome! ❤️❤️❤️
Great video, would love to hear about how you price your items for sale. Very good info in this video, have been thinking about maybe selling some of my work.. Thank you for this video.
I've got a video for that!! Hope this helps!! czcams.com/video/K198zKBq1gs/video.html ❤️❤️❤️
This just popped up in my feed and it made me so excited! Thank you for including me and for all the kind words ❤️😘
Wait??? Who is this???? I don't recognize the name!!! 💓💓💓
@@EliseRoseCrochet oops sorry, it’s me Anna (theknottyboss) I forgot I was signed in under my personal account 🤣🤦♀️
@@aleyzina Lol! I thought so, but wasn't sure!!! I'm so glad you liked the video!
This was great Elise! We are moving on to a new adventure... this Fall we will be Homesteaders! I definitely want to incorporate knitting and crochet as part of a family income... dreaming and planning now. Thanks for all the tips!
That's so wonderful, Nicole!!! You should really think about starting a CZcams channel! I'm at the part in your book when you all are getting ready to move to PA! I look forward to reading every night! 📖📖📖
@@EliseRoseCrochet it's a terrifying thought buy also a very exciting thought.... I know one of the things I DEFINITELY want to do is have a few wool sheep and learn to shear and dye and card and spin... so many possibilities. I can't wait to just slow down and start writing down ideas..My brain is about to burst. I'm going like the energizer bunny getting this house ready..I'm going to email you the link of our new house!
@@nicoleallen4744 That sounds soooooo amazing!!!! So excited for you all!!!
Nice ideas. I'm working on some of these xD
That's great!! 🧶🧶🧶
An inspiring video. I’d love to earn money as a crafter but don’t really know where to begin.
My advice would be to start with one thing. Choose something that you can start with and learn everything you can about it. When you feel comfortable with that one, add something else! 💖
I really want to have my own business surrounding my knitting and crochet.
That's wonderful! 🧶🧶🧶
Hi thanks on hou advise it will help me i my bussiness that you verry much
You are so welcome! 💖
Love your tips! Thank you. Where do you buy your shirts? I love them all and need that pink sweater! ❤
Thank you! I buy them lots of different places!! ❤️❤️❤️
My mom is an amazing knitter, She makes woollen sweaters by her hands we want to do something for her but we can't launch a fashion brand, so can you guys recommend me some ideas? She always wanted to do something and become an independent woman but my grandparents financial conditions didn't helped her dreams. Help me in making her dreams come true😊 who knows? maybe your idea can change someone's life😊
Wow! Awesome, helpful show Elise! 😀💃🏻💚🕊
You're so welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed it! 🧶🧶🧶
I'm in the process of purchasing a property that has a lot of fruit and vegetables on it. The realtor suggested that I could take the extras to the farmer's market. My daughter also wants a beehive which would be great for the garden. I'm thinking it would be neat to have a few crochet items for sale on the table as well. I'm not really looking to make a lot of money, honestly it would probably be more so that the food growing on the property doesn't go to waste, but it would be nice to get some back from our efforts in the garden.
How wonderful!! Sounds like there are a lot of opportunities!! 🧶
@@EliseRoseCrochet I'm thinking of maybe making little crochet fruits, vegetables, foods, and garden bugs would go well alongside real fruits and vegetables. I'm very new at crochet. I tried earlier this year and got really confused because I was watching right hand videos while trying to crochet left-handed. I gave up on trying to do it left-handed for now and decided to just figure it out right-handed. Maybe I can switch it up once I get more comfortable, but I don't think I'm doing too bad.
I made a couple of the cats from the Dumpling Cats book, and I'm almost finished with an Ogre. I think I like the lace weight yarn a little better than worsted though, but it might be my hook that is the real issue. The 4.5mm I decided to use is one of those plastic light up ones, but it is squeaky and harder to pull through. On top of that, I don't even like the built in light because I feel like it blinds me more than helps me see. I realized the squeaky when watching your video review on hooks and now I'm too far along with this ogre to start over/ swap hooks.
I do craft fairs in November and December and make way more than enough for Christmas presents for my son's and my youngest son' birthday
That's wonderful!! What a great way to make money for Christmas!! 🎄🎄🎄
@@EliseRoseCrochet thanks. Now doing scarves, slippers, etc in local sports teams and university school colors
The business math class I took years ago helps with the craft fairs
@@dawnheller114 That's fantastic!
@@dawnheller114 That's brilliant!
I just want to quit my job too, kindly send me a book of patterns for crotcheting so that I begin this work I love it, I finished my granny square jacket it is so nice, wanna continue.
There are a lot of great links in the description box below to get you started! Good luck! 🧶🧶🧶
Thanks 😍🥰🥰🥰
You're very welcome! 🧶🧶🧶
Oops! My comment was about becoming a Certified Crochet Instructor. I had stumbled on this and thought I'd never use it at the time.
No problem!! ❤️
Thanks for sharing all these recommendations. What you are doing is quite lovely and inspiring. I do beautiful crochet but I have no help and no one can succeed alone. Technology for me is daunting. I've wasted a lot of money making an effort to move forward and then giving up. I can participate in almost all the other aspects of a business except those that are technological. I often wish I had a person or more to team up with so they could do those tasks but I haven't been successful. It makes me sad to think of it because I could have been doing better.
I totally get it. I'm not a "tech" person, but I've had to learn how to do it. It's a skill just like learning how to crochet. Working through learning new technological skills will be so worth it in the long run! Good luck! ❤️
I all ready sell where I live and on Facebook. But I like put my crocheting other places too
That's wonderful! 💗
Hey so, just a quick question...ARE YOU A HUFFLEPUFF?! LOL I saw your little mascot in the background and your 9 3/4 looking sign below in the corner.... :) was just curious 🤔
Lol! I love Harry Potter, but I'm not sure what house I like more. ❤
Thank you for this video, it's really very helpful.
I have a question: almost every manual already exists. I would be afraid that I would have problems if I publish a manual that already exists. Or very similar to my inspiration. For example, a mandala, a bag or an amigurumi.
Can I get a problem there?
Do I mention the inspiration or can that cause even more problems?
That was a fear I had in the beginning that my patterns would look like someone else's. As long as you made the pattern from your own ideas, it's fine. For example there are only so many ways to crochet a bunny, there are going to be similarities! Good luck!! 🧶🧶🧶
Very nice
Thank you! 💓
Hi Elise! I was doing a little fiber shopping and ordered the neck light you recommend for your link. I was wondering what kind of fiber fill for you recommend for your Amigurumi’s. If I overlooked I apologize thanks -Susan Montgomery
I mostly use Poly-fil stuffing! I hope you like your neck light. ❤
@@EliseRoseCrochet Thank you! I can’t wait to get it in tomorrow to use it🙂Love your channel, I have learned so much from you already. TFS!!!♥️
Hello! I love your videos❣️ very helpful and inspiring! If you ever need a translation (Spanish English) just let me know, I’ll gladly do it for you. 🙃
Thank you so very much for the offer!! 💖💖💖
Mindblown. That Harry Potter crochet book looks amazing 😍😍
It's soooo good!! 🧙🏻♀️🧙🏻♀️🧙🏻♀️
Wow ,thank you. I do not have a channel ( but I'm told I do ) , talking to people is to scary. But thought have float through my mind. Its good to know I have help , if it goes from floating to giving it a try.
I all ready got the Harry Potter book because I found you and your little creature's ( can't spell or say it.) Thank you.
Talking to a camera gets easier the more you do it! There's a lot of great information out there for people beginning a CZcams channel!! I just got my Harry Potter book too! Can't decide which project I'm going to start with! ❤️
That last link job could not be found under tech editing. This is a heads up.
Thanks so much for sharing! Here's the link: fiatfiberarts.com/ ❤️
Hello! I’ve been enjoying your tutorials. Do you have a tutorial or know of one they you would you recommend for embroidering eyes on an amigurumi doll?
You just read my mind! I'm getting ready to do a video on that very soon! 👀👀👀
@@EliseRoseCrochet yay!!!! I have been looking through all your past videos in case I missed it. I’m embroidering the eyes because I’m crocheting the doll for a baby. The shower is next week. Are there any videos you’d recommend until you’ve released your tutorial?
I definitely won't have mine done before then. I don't have any recommendations, unfortunately! I'm sure there are some good ones on CZcams! ❤️
@@EliseRoseCrochet that’s okay! I’m still looking forward to when your release your tutorial. This will definitely not be my last amigurumi project needing eyes. Thank you for all you do! I’m learning so much! 😊🧶
I had very small income from pattern selling and teaching. But I have too many crochet dolls at home, I spent too much time on them and I dont want to sell at too low, but it occupied a lot of my space, how could I sell the dolls much quicker?
Figure out a price that would make you happy and see if they will sell for that. Try on Etsy or even at a local handmade market. If they don't sell at that price, drop it until you can sell them. If all else fails look for places to donate them that makes you feel good about it. Hope that helps!! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for the video! Question, do you have to go through some sort of licensing or registration to sell amigurumi. I know there are certain rules about selling kids toys, but are they considered kids toys?
Here in the United States I'm not aware of any regulations for selling toys on a small scale, like for a handmade business. I also don't consider the things I crochet toys, more like nursery decor. Hope that helps! ❤
The only situation in the US where one may need licensing is if you are making copyrighted characters such as Mickey Mouse. In a case like that, Disney is highly protective of their intellectual property and they may be inclined to take legal actions against someone who makes Mickey Mouse merch to sell. Something to keep in mind.
Well, it’s so confusing because from what I understand, there are regulations when selling amigurumi…such as testing (with plastic pieces such as eyes).
